Yeah, just saw this list on the news last night too but they didn't mention what model years it applied to.

Nice to see my car is safe. somewhat..

 

damn xenons

 

if you read it says that its the 2002 model with the xenons headlights

 

dam around my way its gsrs for are number one and anything with an lsvtec dam ricers

 

News said it was 02 and 03 b/c of headlights... I just looked on Ebay and prices on them are high... Kinda made everyone want one. Watch the Maximas fly off of driveways now.

 

people try to break in my car for the black leather interior like twice. i was lucky i was there in the rite time before them, not too lucky for them though. can you say broken jaw and getting hit with the CLUB on the back of your head a couple of times lucky? lol

 

I believe that cause u live in jamaica man...

 

that sux for the '02-'03 models, wonder if the '04+ Max has the same issues w/ thier HID's being stolen

 

Yet another reason to hate V-tec

 

Dont worry...GO RED SOX!!
